SBX gif Sea-Based X-Band Radar

Description: April 3, 2005. The 2,000-ton radar is lowered aboard the converted oil rig in what will become the Sea-Based X-band Radar (SBX) for the Missile Defense Agency. The assembly took place at the Kiewit Offshore Services in Corpus Christi, Texas. The 282-foot high structure will displace nearly 50,000 tons when at its operating draft. The SBX, a unique combination of an advanced-radar with a mobile, ocean-going, semi-submersible platform will provide the nation with highly advanced ballistic missile detection and will also have the capability to discriminate hostile missile warheads from decoys or countermeasures. Its mobility gives it the capability to be positioned on the ocean to support Missile Defense Agency tests and also operationally support defense of our homeland, deployed forces and allies and friends. The SBX will be homeported in Adak, Alaska later this year.


MSX gif Sea Based Midcourse Intercept Tests

Description: January 25, 2002. Successful test involving a planned intercept of an Aries ballistic missile target by a Standard Missile launched from an Aegis Cruiser.

Description: June 15, 2002. Successful test involving a planned intercept of a ballistic missile target by a Standard Missile launched from an Aegis Cruiser.

Description: November 21, 2002. Successful test involving a planned intercept of a ballistic missile target by a Standard Missile launched from an Aegis Cruiser.

Description: Notional animation of test involving a planned intercept of a ballistic missile target by a Standard Missile launched from an Aegis Cruiser.

Description: June 18, 2003. A developmental Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) is launched from the U.S. Navy cruiser, USS Lake Erie (CG-70), in a Missile Defense Agency test, Wednesday, near Kauai, Hawaii. The test was the latest in a series aimed at developing a sea-based defense against short to medium range ballistic missile threats.

Description: December 11, 2003. Flight Mission-6 (FM-6) involved the detection and tracking of an Aries medium-range target missile launched from the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF), Kauai, Hawaii at 8:10am HST (1:10pm EST). Approximately two minutes after target launch, a developmental Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) was launched from the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense cruiser the USS LAKE ERIE (CG 70). Approximately two minutes later the SM-3 successfully intercepted the target missile with "hit to kill" technology, using only the force of the direct collision to destroy the target. This was the fourth successful intercept for Aegis BMD and SM-3.

Description: February 24, 2005. A Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) is launched from the USS Lake Erie (CG 70) in the latest Missile Defense Agency, U.S. Navy test of its sea-based ballistic missile defense program. The SM-3 intercepted a short range ballistic missile target, launched minutes earlier from the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands, Kauai, Hawaii. The intercept, the fifth in six attempts, occurred approximately 100 miles from Kauai.

Description: November 17, 2005. This test involved for the first time a "separating" target, meaning that the target warhead separated from its booster rocket requiring the interceptor to distinguish between the body of the missile and the actual warhead. The interceptor missile was launched from the Pearl Harbor-based Aegis cruiser USS Lake Erie (CG 70). The target was intercepted more than 100 miles in space above the Pacific Ocean and 375 miles northwest of Kauai.

Description: June 22, 2006. A Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) is launched on June 22, 2006 from the Aegis cruiser USS Shiloh (CG 67), during a joint Missile Defense Agency, U.S. Navy ballistic missile flight test.

Description: April 26, 2007. A Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) is launched from the Aegis cruiser USS Lake Erie (CG 70), during a joint Missile Defense Agency, U.S. Navy ballistic missile flight test on April 26, 2007. Approximately three minutes later, the SM-3 intercepted a unitary (non-separating) ballistic missile threat target, launched from the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands, Kauai, Hawaii. Within moments of this launch, the USS Lake Erie also launched a Standard Missile-2 (SM-2) against a hostile air target in order to defend herself.


MSX gif Ground Based Midcourse Tests

Description: October 2, 1999. Sequenced video from Integrated Flight Test 3.

Description: July 8, 2000. Sequenced video from Integrated Flight Test 5.

Description: July 14, 2001. Successful test involving a planned intercept of an intercontinental ballistic missile target.

Description: December 3, 2001. Successful test involving a planned intercept of an intercontinental ballistic missile target. A modified Minuteman intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) target vehicle was launched from Vandenberg AFB, Calif., at 10:00 p.m. EST,  and a prototype interceptor was launched approximately 20 minutes later and 4,800 miles away from the Ronald Reagan Missile Site Kwajalein Atoll in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The intercept took place approximately 10 minutes after the interceptor was launched, at an altitude in excess of 140 miles above the earth, and during the midcourse phase of the target warhead's flight.  This was the third successful intercept for the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) program, formerly known as National Missile Defense.

Description: October 14, 2002. Successful test involving a planned intercept of an intercontinental ballistic missile target over the central Pacific Ocean in the Western Test Range. A modified Minuteman intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) target vehicle was launched from Vandenberg AFB, Calif., at 10:00 p.m. EDT, and a prototype interceptor was launched approximately 22 minutes later and 4,800 miles away from the Ronald Reagan Missile Site, Kwajalein Atoll, in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The intercept took place approximately six minutes after the interceptor was launched, at an altitude in excess of 140 miles above the earth, and during the midcourse phase of the target warhead's flight. This was the fifth successful intercept--and the fourth consecutive--in seven flight tests since October 1999 for the GMD program.

Description: January 24, 2006. Sequenced video from Integrated Flight Test 13b.

Description: February 27, 2006. A long-range Strategic Targets System (STARS) rocket is launched from the Kodiak Launch Complex on Kodiak Island, Alaska on February 24, 2006. The rocket was successfully tracked by the Beale AFB radar during the exercise, and target data, including a weapon task plan (firing solution), was successfully transmitted to the Joint National Integration Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. where it was inputted into the Command, Control, Battle Management and Communication system for the Ballistic Missile Defense System.

Description: Sepember 1, 2006. A ground-based interceptor is launched from Vandenberg AFB, California. The missile, designed to intercept long range ballistic missile threats in the midcourse phase of flight, hit a target that had been launched from Kodiak, Alaska. This was part of a Missile Defense Agency test of the Ballistic Missile Defense System it is designing against threats of all ranges and phases of flight.
